Subject: lclint format-type question


Type checking for printf format codes is enabled in -weak mode, the
difference is the type checking --- since char and int are equivalent in
weak mode, lclint will not report an error when a char is printed using
%d, etc.  It will, for instance, report and error when a float is
printed as %d.  

If this is what you have in mind, then you would need to set -charint to
get the errors reported in printf's (as elsewhere).  If there is some
other kind of error you expect but aren't getting, let me know.
